Abstract

Introduction: Restorative materials have evolved toward simpler, faster applications. Incrementally-layered composite resins, while improved, still face long chair-side issues. Self-adhesive bulk-fill resins offer a solution by allowing thicker layers and reducing procedure time. Aim: To assess the clinical time of the novel material, Surefil One (SuO), against the conventional composite, Neo Spectra (NS), in cervical cavities. Materials and Methods: Fifty-four cervical cavities were prepared and divided into right and left sides in a split-mouth design and one side was filled with SuO and the alternative side receive NS. Operatory time (Minutes) was measured and compared between both materials starting from cavity preparation and terminating after polishing was done utilizing a stop watch. Results: SuO showed lower mean clinical time than NS. Conclusion: Utilizing a material that has both advantages of being self-adhesive and bulk-filled reduces the chairside time. Recommendation: Further long-term clinical studies are warranted to assess the stability and clinical performance of this material.
